Seeing double November 5, 2008

After a trial run of a few weeks, I have decided to structure my blog in an alternating pattern. Each post about my personal experiences in the outdoors will be followed by a post about the subject of landscape or the outdoors viewed through the filter of history, literature, or philosophy.

Why am I doing this? Because it reflects my own double image. Because I like the idea of a distinct pattern rather than the “random musings” concept followed by so many blogs. And because I like the notion of a clearly defined, self-created intellectual project. I was inspired in this by an interesting blog about reading W. Somerset Maugham.
